Abstract
The control of the masses is essential for the support of any nation. The Third Reich was soon aware of the need to create a common enemy in the collective ideology that could be used to bring together the popular discontent and would also serve as society’s unifying force. That enemy was no other than the so called Jewish Bolshevism. To achieve that goal, the Nazi authorities organized during the thirties several exhibitions all across Germany with an obvious anti-communist and anti-semitic message. In this paper, we will analyze these exhibitions under a cultural and political approach resorting to the extensive German literature and Spanish archival sources.Downloads
